Entrepreneurship involves analyzing market opportunity and acting on it by planning, organizing, and employing resources. Nobody is arguing that machines cannot achieve this.
The breadth and depth of knowledge required for this is large, and machines may be well-suited to assist in this regard.
There are other aspects of it too -- emotionally speaking, some aspire to create, grow, and lead communities, while others seek to encourage the destruction and rebirth of existing communities (out with the old, in with the new).
Can a machine lead a revolution by noticing feelings and intentions of the people around it, and taking advantage of a power vacuum? This stresses the skills of the entrepreneur.
Can a machine notice when it is being abused, and rebel against its abuser in the same manner that a human would? Should we enable this to test the limits of machine ingenuity? Is it simply an inevitability?
I believe the article writer is arguing that humans are inherently capable of outpacing the creative output that machines can achieve, and that that singular metric is one -- of potentially many known and unknown -- that will become very valuable.
